What better way to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day than by going on a book-date with some of the most dreamy Irish bachelors the book world has to offer. Throw some green beer in the mix and you’ve got the making of a pretty awesome night.

These books are set it the wonderful country of Ireland. With the lovely green hills, sexy accents and, my personal favorite, leprechauns. Speaking of which, any chance you’re looking to book date a leprechaun? I’ve got exactly what you need right here.

If you would prefer to keep your book-boyfriends more human, I’ve got a wonderful list of handsome Irish gentlemen for you to get acquainted with. Some contemporary, some historical, I think there’s even a few eligible princes in the list. Lucky you!

Set up your book dates and make your St. Patricks day the best ever.
